Shen Shu's clear eyes flashed.
"I'm not entirely sure. I only heard her vaguely mention it once. It seems... you can learn and copy another player's skill in a very short period of time. But there are significant limitations. Each copy seems to only last about an hour."
"Holy shit!" Lu Ye's eyes suddenly widened, as if he had heard something out of the ordinary.
"Copy skills?! One hour?! What kind of incredible bug is this?!"
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind instantly, and his breathing became faster.
Wow! If this skill is used well, it can be used to rob and kill people...
Bah, is this the necessary magical skill for doing justice and maintaining world peace?!
Imagine copying the best skill of someone you dislike, and then using that skill to defeat him! Exciting!
Lu Ye slapped his thigh excitedly.
"I've found a treasure! I really have found a treasure! Chen Shu, you have to keep a close eye on this matter. Let Su Baiyue study it carefully. This skill will definitely be very useful!"
Just as everyone was thinking about their own things, the "Lucky" broke through the waves under the night sky and finally slowly sailed into the special map marked by the system as the "junction of areas A and B".
Almost the moment the ship completely entered this sea area, the sky above everyone's vision seemed to be torn open, and blood-red numbers suddenly occupied everyone's field of vision -
【00:59:59】
【00:59:58】
…
The cold mechanical sound exploded in everyone's ears.
"[Warning! This round of survival challenge officially begins!]"
"What the hell? This round has just begun?"
Lu Ye was stunned and subconsciously glanced at the system terminal on his wrist. It clearly showed that they had been struggling in this hellhole for quite some time.
The channel exploded instantly!
"Fuck! What's going on? Wasn't this a challenge? Why did it start all over again?"
"Help! Our boat...is crawling with fish with legs! They're attacking us!"
"Oh shit! These fish eat people! Ahhhhhhhhh my arm!"
"Not only do they eat people, they even gnaw on the supply boxes! My food! My fresh water!"
The avatars of countless players quickly turned gray in a short period of time, obviously they had been attacked by the virus.
Lu Ye listened to the ghostly howlings in the channel, then looked at his own calm "Lucky Man" and the sea around him, which was treacherous but not moving normally, and a smile of relief appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Hey, my luck is really that I am the chosen one!
It seems that this special map is really the right place. At least I don’t have to deal with those long-legged things for the time being.
What surprised him even more was that the moment the "Lucky One" entered the special map, he felt that the spiritual connection between him and the two tamed level 4 monster fish was still strong.
The two huge monsters were now lurking in the deep water area of the "Lucky" closely, like the most loyal guards.
Lu Ye was in a good mood. He patted the side of the boat and proudly announced to the invisible giant below.
"Little ones, you'll have names from now on! The big one will be called 'Fat Tiger'! From today on, Fat Tiger! You will follow me and rule these seas... like a tyrant!"
As for the other end... well, I'll take it when I think of it!
“Woo—woo—woo—”
The shrill alarm suddenly broke this short-lived sense of pride!
Inside the captain's room, a huge red dot on the radar screen was approaching their position at an alarming speed!
"Boss Lu! Right ahead, at the five o'clock position, we've spotted an unidentified armed vessel approaching at high speed! Their firepower configuration is unknown, but they're definitely not forgiving!"
A crew member on lookout shouted at the top of his lungs.
Liao Qingyue's face changed, and he grabbed the high-powered telescope and looked in that direction.
After a moment, she took a deep breath and turned to Lu Ye with a serious expression.
"Mr. Lu, we're in trouble! It's the 'Wu Di'! That madman in Area B!"
"The title of Emperor Wu!" Liao Qingyue's teeth were chattering, and fire was almost spitting out of his eyes.
"Zone B's number one mad dog, Cai Jinwu!"
The man who was famous for his cruelty and treachery in Area B, his ship actually chased him here!
Before he finished speaking, the "Wu Di" with its pitch-black body and ferocious muzzle was approaching.
With the help of the searchlight of the "Lucky Man", everyone could clearly see that several figures were tied to the head of the wide deck of the "Emperor Wu"!
Those people were ragged, soaked, and shivering in the sea breeze. They had obviously suffered a lot.
A short and strong figure swayed out from the cabin of the "Emperor Wu", holding an exaggerated shotgun in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun was swaying proudly above the heads of the bound people.
"Hahahaha! You bastards from the Lucky One, and you stinky bitch Liao Qingyue, look who this is?"
Cai Jinwu's hoarse and shrill laughter came through the loudspeaker, extremely arrogant.
"Today is their death! And yours too!"
Liao Qingyue's pupils suddenly shrank, and the knuckles of her clenched fists turned white from excessive force. Her nails dug deep into her palms, and a hint of blood filled the air.
"It's...it's them!" Her voice trembled, filled with deep hatred and a hint of despair.
"They are my people! In the last melee, they... they got separated. I thought..."
I thought they had been eaten by fish, but unexpectedly, they fell into the hands of the beast Cai Jinwu!
Liao Qingyue turned her head suddenly, staring at Lu Ye with her red eyes, her tone containing a hint of pleading, but more of determination.
"Mr. Lu! You saved us before, and I, Liao Qingyue, will never forget this kindness! These people are my brothers and sisters who have shared life and death with me! Please, save them again!"
She took a deep breath, as if she had made some kind of decision.
"As long as you can rescue them, my life, Liao Qingyue's, and theirs, will be yours from now on! We will all live with you and work like slaves for you, without a second thought!"
She added hastily, her voice rising with excitement.
"Inside... there's a girl named Xiao Qi. She's a 'Foundation Building Master'! She can, can strengthen the level of everyday equipment on our ship! She's crucial to our future development!"
Foundation Building Master?
Enhance equipment level?
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows.
This is a rare auxiliary profession that plays an immeasurable role in improving the overall strength of the team and the quality of life.
Although the "Lucky One" under his command is of a high level, many of its basic equipment still have room for improvement.
If I could get such a talent...
This deal is a good deal!
Lu Ye touched his chin, his usual ruffian smile returned to his face, and he spoke loudly into the loudspeaker.
"Boss Cai, right? I've long heard of you! The rule at sea is that it's better to resolve a feud than to create one. Name your price, and I want these people. Let's trade resources. Peace brings wealth!"
